Years and years ago now I ran a BBS system on an Apple ][+. 4 floppy drives,
48k of ram and a blazing 300 baud modem. Later the board moved to a ][e with
128k ram, 4 floppies and a 10 meg HD. Got quite a deal on the HD, only
$1500.00. I was sure no one person could possibly fill a drive that big with
around the house kinda stuff.
